Reports Flag Multiple Doctor Doom Variants in Avengers: Doomsday as Post-Production Continues

The Russo-directed event starring Robert Downey Jr. as Doctor Doom is now in post-production with spring reshoots planned.

Overview

  • Industry scoops from Daniel Richtman, echoed by John Rocha, report multiple Doctor Doom variants in the film, including at least two female versions with distinct purple-and-gold and all-gold looks.
  • A separate leaker claims additional design details, including a Doom wielding a sword and shield, a white super-suit for Mystique, and a darker, jacket-like costume for Shang-Chi, though none are officially confirmed.
  • Richtman also reports that another male Black Panther will appear, and The Direct cites him in saying Tobey Maguire’s Spider-Man is expected to show up, both unconfirmed at this stage.
  • The Hollywood Reporter notes Avengers: Doomsday is in post-production with additional photography expected in the spring before Avengers: Secret Wars begins filming in the summer; release dates remain December 18, 2026, and December 17, 2027.
  • Cast members Simu Liu and Florence Pugh tease a large, legacy-filled ensemble, while Famke Janssen says she is not returning and Ke Huy Quan says he has not been asked to reprise his Loki role.
